So is the game plan just to have a crack in injury time?

Genius isn’t it!

[George Rs]

Gas missed a penalty as well

Well he is not my Nige. He is not my dad. 

But that is very sad to hear.

Would be nice of him to ‘turn up’ and show a bit of something to be honest

Only way to “still be in the game”

[AshtonGreat]

i don't think there can be too many fingers pointed at Manning today. WBA are and always have been a bigger club, and they have a better squad of players. We played OK

Can the fans please boo Manning if he decides to clap the fans at the end? Expect he'll run off down the tunnel as quick as possible 

[2015]

Let us not forget, we did beat Southampton

Who gives a **** about rovers? We've not played them in over 20 years and what the cock us saying is not wrong

So were lucky to be in the division are we?? The reason I mentioned Rovers was because Johnson is playing up as a supporter of them by talking bull about us today.

[And Its Smith]

Radio Bristol saying we’ve done enough to get something out of the game 

[DaveF]

Thank God we've got time on the grass coming up.

[The Original OTIB]

Manning interview will mention hitting bar twice. Might start with it.

He was bought for a different team

All our players look lost playing this system

Tbf we played really well a long long time ago against Southampton so I’m sure all is fine. 
 

 

I’m pretty certain that is going to be his only highlight in his city career (he ain’t turning this around)

Best of manning dvd featuring 2 draws against prem sides in poor form and a win against southampton

bonus disc featuring 30 minutes of behaviours…

Stay classy pal

[22A]

OK; City appear to have been beaten again.

My one consolation is they don't appear to have given up and are still trying. Professional pride, or just to cheer us fans up?

No, it’ll start with “remember, we beat Southampton”

Probably have, doesn’t change the fact that haven’t though. 

Mannings inability to come out for the second half well strikes again. 

[rednotblue]

It's fairly clear Manning is unable to get his ideas across to the players under match conditions OR the current crop of players are unable to produce the Manning style under match conditions (Naismith alluded to weeks a go when commentating that in training it's totally different)

 

The first means Manning has to go which means JL and BT standing with fans is not tenable for them to stay either. If Manning goes then JL and BT will stay so the relationahip between club and fans will go toxic.

The second means revamping a squad which will take a lot of money or a number of transfer windows. FFP may have a say in that.

 

 

[bearded_red]

There can’t be anything more painfully Liam Manning than deciding at 2-0 down with five minutes to go, to make the bold and brave decision to take off a right back and left back and bring on.. a right back and a left back.

Yep. We rarely get a result at West Brom
